How do you check the ECU for codes on a 95?? Cause I took it to Autozone and they could find the plugin

If it's a v6 model, the obd2 data link connector is behind the ashtray. The service check connector should be under/behind the glove box.

95 wasn't obd2...so there wouldn't be a diagnostics behind the ashtray in that year...

The v6 model Accords were OBD2 starting in 1995. The DLC is behind the ashtray.

if it is a 92 the SCS sonnector plug is on the right of the dash under the Glove compartment. It should be covered with a green cover. Look for the two pin plug that the SCS plug.
